Chelsea's Oscar: Shanghai SIPG transfer '90 percent' done

Oscar has said that his move to Shanghai SIPG is "90 percent" completed after the Chinese Super League club offered £60 million to sign him from Chelsea in January.

On Tuesday, a source close to Oscar told ESPN FC that the Brazilian was weighing up the move which would see him become Chelsea's most lucrative ever sale, with the Blues having reportedly accepted the bid.

Back in February it was revealed that Oscar had rejected the chance to join Jiangsu Suning in a £57m deal because of his reservations about moving to China, but the 25-year-old has now confirmed that he is close to completing a switch to their domestic rivals.
